Course objectives
The crucial objective of the course is to develop the student's abilities of reflection and self-assessment as enhanced by Preparation for Czech Language and Literature Teaching II. The course will include group reflection (a directed discussion) with other teaching students to support experience sharing as well as a dialogue with a department specialist to provide feedback to the student. A profession portfolio and a reflective diary will be used to self-assess the undertaken practice.
Learning outcomes
Once the course is complete, the student will be able to:
reflect a class of another teacher,
recognize positive and negative aspects of their teaching,
apply general didactical, pedagogical, and psychological aspects in practice,
critically evaluate and apply basic principles of departmental didactics.
Syllabus
  • The practice reflection includes the following topics:
  • 1) Teacher and their class – the following issues will be included: How does the teacher communicate with their class? How successful was my communication with classes I had taught? Have I met special education needs students? How do I work with them? Do I cooperate with the pedagogical assistant? How? Do all pupils participate equally? How do I make the pupils speak?
  • 2) Didactic goals and evaluations – these questions will be focused on: Do I distinguish goals of lessons in accordance with the needs and abilities of the individual class? Am I successful reaching them? How do I reflect reaching the goals while teaching? Do I come back to the issue later, for example in the reflective diary? How does evaluation work in the school code? What forms of evaluation do I choose? What do I evaluate in writing? What importance do I give to individual subject components while evaluating? Do I tell the pupils clearly what I expect from them? How much time do I spend evaluating? How do I work with formative evaluation?
  • 3) Teacher identity – these questions will be discussed: Am I a full-fledged teacher? Do I wonder about what I‘m good at and what I need to improve? Do I regularly get back to the lessons I've taught, reflecting them retrospectively? Have I figured out what methods and forms of teaching go together with my teacher profile?
  • 4) Czech language and literature as a subject – the topics will include: What materials do I use while getting prepared? Do I utilize handbooks, information technologies or interactive aids? Do I refine language abilities of my pupils? How? Is it necessary to teach students about every single author and their works? How do I choose them? Are my pupils active readers? Do I support their readership? How? How could I motivate them to read?
  • 5) Topics will be modified in accordance to the needs and interests of students.
